So, I went into the room last night and it was freezing and the fan was on in addition to the AC. I lowered the fan and he gave me a look. I said, "I'm lowering the fan it's freezing in here!"

Grumble grumble goodnight I love you.

I'm with you AN. I love having the windows open. But down here we only have a few weeks before the humidity comes in and we have to close up again. And my windows don't behave right so I always have a hard time getting them buttoned up right. I'd rather sleep with it a little warm than have it too cold.

sleep outside.

It's so damn humid where I live, we have no choice but to turn on the A/C...and run the fan. But I love our fan - the drone puts me to sleep.

Yeah, we have thermostat wars here too. I like being warm so the heat is set probably too high in the winter. The summer heat doesn't bother me and I never or hardly ever run the ac. Except at night, that's when we're finally on common ground. I love a cold room to sleep, then I pile on covers.

I battle with myself this time of year more than anyone; I'm the one wanting to keep the giant uptick in electrical use held off as long as possible, yet I'm also the one who doesn't tolerate heat AT ALL. Thus far, willing the weather to stay cool and crisp has been unsuccessful. A bummer, because that's when I sleep the best!

I am no fan of heat pumps, because the temperature seems to swing more, from too chilly to too warm. Not a recipe for restful slumber!

SO and I are more compatible in the summer, he tries to keep the bills low and I love the heat. In the winter I start my love affair with the electric blanket.

My H likes it chilly but then he *does* have more "insulation" than I do. I start getting chilly when it hits mid 50s. That's jacket weather for me. But we've managed to compr8mise in the winter. A little too cold for me, a little too warm for him. In the summer, the AC is turned on when temps hit mid 70s and stays on most, if not all night. I just pile on the blankets if it gets too cold for me... Lord knows I have enough of them.
